| For all intents and purposes identical to a modern '''internal combustion engine''', the '''I.C.E.''' in [[BattleTech]] is used mainly for [[Combat Vehicle|conventional vehicle]]s and [[IndustrialMechs]]. Its power output is less than a [[fusion engine]] of similar mass, meaning an I.C.E. needs to be heavier in order to have the same engine rating of a fusion engine. In fact, it has the greatest weight-to-rating ratio of all the engines available in the [[TechManual]]. Internal combustion engines cannot power [[energy weapon]]s without power amplifiers, unlike fusion engines. | | For all intents and purposes identical to a modern '''internal combustion engine''', the '''I.C.E.''' in [[BattleTech]] is used mainly for [[Combat Vehicle|conventional vehicle]]s and [[IndustrialMechs]].

| The saving grace of the I.C.E. is its cost. Since they are considerably cheaper and easier to manufacture than fusion engines, the I.C.E. is used in the many conventional vehicles that tend to form the backbone of a planetary militia. | | The saving grace of the I.C.E. is its cost.
